Craig-Hallum analyst Steve Dyer lowered his price target for Gentherm to $48 from $50, while reiterating a Buy rating on the shares. Despite a challenging market environment, the analyst believes the company continues to execute well on its Fit-for-Growth initiatives and nicely outperformed global auto production. Weaker than expected global auto production was the primary driver of the weaker results/guide, although he points out that revenue missed estimates by less than 2%, CCS grew year over year for the first time in six quarters and Gentherm outperformed the industry by 600 bps. Overall, Dyer continues to like the multi-year opportunity.

Barrington analyst Gary Prestopino raised his price target on Gentherm to $50 after attending the company's strategic update meeting, stating that he believes management is taking all the right steps to increase shareholder value over the long-term. The key takeaway from the meeting was the company's plan to divest non-core businesses in its Industrial segment that generated an operating loss of $14.8M in 2017, said Prestopino, who also views the decision to minimize or eliminate investment and expenditures in non-core products as a positive. He keeps an Outperform rating on Gentherm shares.

A review of Boeing's grounded 737 MAX aircraft has expanded to include emergency procedures used by pilots on earlier models of the plane, further delaying its return to service, the Wall Street Journal's Andy Pasztor reports, citing U.S. government officials. The FAA hasn't questioned the safety of older aircraft currently in service, but the broadened review will play a major role in adding months to the time expected to get the grounded fleet of 737 MAX jets back in the skies, Pasztor notes. As part of the FAA's safety analysis of a proposed software fix for the fleet, the agency is also weighing changes to how pilots of the entire 737 family are trained to respond when the flight-control computer or other systems suddenly push the jet's nose down, the author says.
